sleep meds - such an important topic

Posted by linkadge on March 25, 2010, at 17:39:04

Quality sleep is probably the most important thing to recovery from any mental illness.

I still havn't found the ideal sleep med that:

1) Works consistently when needed

2) Doesn't interfere with daytime cognative
performance or mood

3) Doesn't give you excruciating withdrawl.


For me, the following hold:

Seroquel: No, Yes (generally), No
Trazodone: No, Yes (generally), No
Zopiclone: Yes, Yes, No
Klonaz: Yes, No, No
Lorazepam: Yes, Yes, Yes (with exception)
Remeron: No, No, No
Olanzapine: Yes, No, No

From my reflection, lorazepam seems like a good choice, although it does leave me a little blah.
